This material was written by Igor Tulkanov, a practicing realtor. You can ask your questions in the comments, Igor will answer them.

Beware of scammers

Fraud is gradually losing relevance, due to the ease of identifying fraudsters, but so far some have come across their tricks.

The most common method of fraud mainly works with visitors who do not understand the features of the real estate market, and who want to save on finding an apartment. You pay money in advance to receive “information” about new apartments appearing, or, as an option, to get your grandmother’s number, renting an apartment in the center for 20 thousand rubles, and as a result, “grandmother” is either sick or tired, and leaves meeting with you for a couple of days, but no one provides you with information. When trying to return the money, the scammers refer to the contract, which states that they do not owe anything) The easiest way to deal with such fraud is to write a statement to the police.

The second most common option is to rent an apartment to several tenants at once. It is easily calculated by the fact that you are asked to leave a deposit / make a deposit / pay money in advance, without drawing up a contract or a pledge receipt, it is motivated by a “line of people” standing behind you and waiting to withdraw).

Knowing how the Moscow real estate market works, such frauds are easy to identify. For example, very understated offers without good reason (sale, short-term rental) are the bait of scammers, or an attempt by the agency to attract attention and force you to call. Which brings us to the next point.

Know the prices

The main resource for finding an apartment in Moscow is the Cyan website (cian.ru). With it, you can easily determine the price spread in the area of \u200b\u200binterest.

Also, knowing the market, you can easily filter out inadequate offers that are higher than the market, thereby a couple of hours on the Internet can save you several tens of thousands of rubles in the long run.

Find out the details by phone

Knowing the prices in the area of \u200b\u200byour search, you can begin to search for suitable offers. Be sure to check with the agents all the details regarding the apartment, as Data may be out of date or inaccurate.
  Do not forget to specify the price. In connection with the current situation (when the owner works with 5-10 agencies, trying to turn in faster), many agents reduce the cost in order to be higher in the search, and, for example, in the elite segment, the spread can reach tens of thousands of rubles.

Specify the size of the agency fee

Having called the options that are suitable for you and making sure that the information indicated in the ads is true, do not forget to specify the amount of the agency fee. Many of the agents, trying to earn as much as possible, put an unreasonably high percentage. If the apartment you are interested in is offered by several agencies at once, choose the 2 lowest percent (if any), and emphasizing that you can go to a competitor, ask for a discount. It is likely you will receive it.

In the elite segment, agents are increasingly refusing commissions from clients since expensive apartments are rented much less often, and it is better to rent an apartment, having received a commission from the owner, than not to rent it at all because of an unreasonably high commission.

Work with an agent

Finding an apartment with an agent is not a method for everyone. Tune in to the fact that you can’t save money. The main benefits for you are saving time, access to agent knowledge, assistance in drawing up contracts, consultation on negotiations and consultation on issues that arise along the way.

There are two options - ask a friend of the agent to give you advice, and then search for options, make appointments, prepare an agreement and negotiate yourself. Or, if you value your time and nerves, hire a realtor. Often, upon completion of the whole process, the value of the time and nerves spent exceeds the commission that the agents ask for their work.

Search for an apartment without an agent

In short - the search for an apartment without an agent fits into a simple scheme:

  • Selection of options, ringing of relevant information for relevance (it is advisable to keep in mind all the issues important to you - the presence of a parking place, dishwasher, proximity to the roadway, the presence of parks, schools, etc.).
  • Assign views to those that suit you the most.
  • Views
  • Choosing the most suitable.
  • Conversation.
  • The conclusion of the contract.

Features of the Moscow market

The Moscow market is characterized by a strong variation in demand depending on the price of the apartment. For an apartment on the outskirts, worth 20 thousand on the same evening after its appearance, a queue of 10 people can be lined up, while an apartment for 80 can stand on the market for several months. This scatter is due to the fact that in Moscow there is a very large number of visitors who need cheap housing, but with an increase in cost, purchasing power is greatly reduced.

The quality of service is growing in proportion to the cost, in the segment of cheap real estate it is not uncommon to find rudeness on the part of both the realtor and the owner, but with the growth in the cost of apartments this comes to naught.
  In cheap apartments, the owner does not need to look for clients himself, so the owner never pays a commission to the realtor, the work of the realtor is paid by the client who rents the apartment, bargaining at the commission is much more difficult, because 5-6 people can breathe in your back, ready to rent an apartment, having paid the entire commission. In the expensive segment, on the contrary, there are one or two clients per 5-6 free apartments, who can afford to make their choice and bargain for weeks.

View apartment

When viewing, you should definitely pay attention to the condition of plumbing, household appliances, furniture. Be sure to check the conformity of the property documents to the data of the passport, find out if there are more owners, how many people are registered, if there are several owners, is there a power of attorney, where are they, how long will it take them to get to the apartment. If you like the apartment, then it is worthwhile to find out in advance the basic conditions on which it is rented - the cost, payment terms, additional conditions, the cost of utilities in the house.

Selection of options, bargaining

After reviewing all the options, usually there are one or two of the most suitable. Call them, make an offer, which, in your opinion, the owner will accept, at the same time, it is worthwhile to understand in advance that the owner may not agree to your conditions, and either make a counter-offer or completely refuse. In this case, it is worth asking what concessions he can make, and under what conditions. It is likely he will meet you.

Contracts, documents

Even while viewing, you can ask the agent to provide you with a copy of the contracts under which the agent is currently working. In general, the agreements of large agencies are similar, differing only in formatting and wording, but it is worthwhile to find out in advance from the agent (or the owner) the special conditions that they would like to prescribe. Often, only at the stage of negotiations, it turns out that the conditions offered by the owner are absolutely not suitable for the tenant (for example, payment in dollars, double deposit, visits more than once a month, etc.)

Also, ask the agent about the standard conditions used in their contracts - some of the agencies, by default, prescribe penalties for those who leave the apartment earlier than 6 months, agents know the company's contracts by heart, and can tell you in detail what exactly is described in it .

Inventory

As a separate item, I would single out an inventory made after the signing of a lease or rental agreement.
  By leaving a deposit, you thus guarantee the safety of the furniture transferred to you by the owner, so treat the inventory with all attention and be sure to check that all possible comments are made. By agreement with the owner, you can take photos by sending them to him as well.

Payment

Having received a lease agreement signed by the owner, you only have to pay it (usually the first month of rent and a deposit are paid). In this case, you can ask the agent in advance to bring a receipt form for the money you have made to the owner.

You give money, you are given a receipt, keys, instructions for household appliances and contacts of maintenance personnel and services.

Now you are the happy owner of a rented apartment in Moscow!

Where can I rent a commercial non-residential premises or warehouse? How to rent a retail space for a store? How to lease commercial property?

Hello to everyone who looked at the site of the popular online magazine "HeaderBober"! You are an expert - Denis Kuderin.

The topic of today's conversation is the rental of commercial real estate. The article will be useful to businessmen, owners of non-residential premises and all those who are interested in current financial issues.

At the end of the article you will find an overview of the most reliable Russian real estate companies that provide intermediary services when renting objects for commerce.

So here we go!

1. Why rent commercial property?

Successful entrepreneurial activity in many respects depends on the successfully chosen premises for doing business. This is especially true for trade and services. A cozy, well-equipped store in a busy part of the city in itself attracts customers.

The same can be said of offices. Every self-respecting company should have a good place to work and receive visitors. Even if you sell goods through an online store, you need a place to complete and issue orders, as well as resolve disputes with customers.

Not every businessman, especially a beginner, can afford the purchase of non-residential premises. In such cases, renting commercial property comes to the rescue.

We list all the advantages of renting:

  • relatively low financial costs;
  • a simpler procedure of paperwork in comparison with a purchase;
  • the ability to change the landlord at any time and move to another building;
  • a large selection of real estate, especially in megacities.

The reverse process - the rental of premises - also has many advantages. First of all, it is a reliable source of passive income. The acquisition of commercial space (retail, office, industrial and others) is a good investment option.

As long as there is a private business, its representatives will constantly need premises for doing business, which means that property owners will have a stable profit without much labor.

Finding the right business premises is a troublesome event. The fastest and most reliable way to find an object is to use the services of professional intermediaries.

About how modern ones work, there is a detailed article on our website.

2. How to rent a commercial property - 5 useful tips

When renting commercial properties, you need to carefully approach their choice. Depends on the parameters and functional characteristics of the room, how soon you can start an entrepreneurial activity, and whether the object will fully meet the goals of your business.

First, decide how you will look for a suitable room - on your own or with the help of an agency. The first method involves an unlimited supply of free time and is associated with a variety of risks. The second option is safer and more reliable.

You will find more information on working with intermediaries in the article "".

Expert advice can help you avoid common tenant mistakes.

Tip 1. Carefully study the hood and ventilation systems.

You or your employees will work in the room, therefore the availability of working ventilation systems is the most important point. The lack of powerful and autonomous ventilation in the building is a real obstacle to the normal operation of a cafe, restaurant, grocery store.

Food should be stored in appropriate conditions, and visitors and sellers should not be disturbed by odors. Moreover, the sanitary services simply will not allow you to use the facility for a catering company or a grocery store, if it has only common house ventilation.

Tip 2. Focus on loading and unloading areas.

A convenient area for loading and unloading goods is another key point for owners of cafes, restaurants, canteens and shops.

It is important that the site where the loading and unloading operations will be carried out does not go into the courtyard of a residential building or on the roadway. You will disturb the residents or motorists, you will be tortured with complaints.

The issue of full-fledged power supply is especially relevant for tenants whose business involves the use of energy-consuming equipment - refrigerators, electric furnaces, machine tools, etc.

Ensure that the electrical cables in the room are capacious enough to meet the needs of the enterprise in full.

Tip 4. Carefully read the terms of the contract

Before you put your autograph on a lease, carefully read the conditions on which you conclude a deal.

The contract must contain the following clauses:

  • rental terms, cost and payment method;
  • if the premises are rented with equipment, then a property inventory is compiled;
  • liability of the parties for breach of contract;
  • terms of termination of the agreement.

The costs of utility bills, garbage disposal, maintenance of the fire system and burglar alarm are generally borne by the tenant. However, the landlord pays for repairs if necessary, including the replacement of plumbing and electrical wiring in case of failure.

In advance, discuss with the landlord the issue of property insurance - whether such an agreement will be drawn up, and if not, decide who will bear the loss in case of unforeseen situations.

Tip 5. Check property documents

It is mandatory to check the title documents of the owner - the contract of sale, an extract from the State Register of ownership.

Make sure that the room really belongs to the person who rents it to you. Otherwise, at one point, the real owner of the object will appear with the appropriate authority. It is also important that the premises were not pledged, were not arrested for debts, and had no other burdens.

A person who is far from the intricacies of housing law should take advantage of professional help when renting or buying non-residential premises. For example, you can clarify for yourself all the obscure points on the website of the Lawyer - a resource on which experts from all areas of jurisprudence work.

You can ask your question even without registration, right on the main page. Legally correct and competent answer you will receive in a few minutes, and completely free. If your problem needs in-depth study, you will need to pay for the services of professionals, but you can determine the amount of the fee yourself.

Step 2. Determine the amount of rent

To find out the best rental price, use one of two options. First, personally review the databases of your city and determine the approximate price range for renting similar premises. Second - delegate this task to a realtor.

By the way, in addition to real estate agencies, intermediary services are provided by private brokers. They usually charge 25-50% less for their work than companies. However, private specialists working with non-residential real estate, even large cities, are few.

5. If you rent commercial property - 3 main risks for the landlord

Each landlord is worried about the condition of his property and wants to make a profit from the lease, not losses.

We list the main risks of commercial property owners and show you how to avoid them.

Risk 1. Misuse of the premises

Each competently drawn up lease agreement indicates for what purpose and how the leased premises will be operated. This also applies to the equipment that you rent with the rental.

If the tenant promised to use the premises for the warehouse, and set up a retail store in it, you have the right to fine it or terminate the agreement without returning the cost of the rental.

Risk 2. Damage or loss of property

You handed over the object and equipment to a respectable citizen, as it seemed to you, but he, in the diplomatic language, did not live up to your expectations. Namely - he brought the room to a state of devastation, broke equipment, unscrewed the bulbs and, in general, behaved like a pig.

The owner in such cases has the right to demand compensation for the damage in full. Moreover, not only repair costs should be reimbursed, but also the market value of damaged equipment.

Responsibility is not provided if the object and property were damaged as a result of unforeseen circumstances - for example, from a fire or flood.

Risk 3. Tenant's refusal to pay a monthly fee

Sloppy payers must be punished with the ruble. However, this is possible, again, if the lease is drawn up in accordance with all the rules. That is, the terms and amount of monthly payments should be clearly specified in the document.

6. If you rent commercial property - 3 main risks for the tenant

The tenant may also suffer as a result of unlawful or unauthorized actions of the landlord.

Risk 1. Rental of premises for which the "lessor" has no legal rights

If a person who does not have the legal rights of an owner to the object rents the premises to you, the contract will be considered invalid. To avoid this, require the presentation of documents of title.

You can independently obtain an extract from Rosreestr by contacting the Multifunctional Center. The service is paid, but then you will reliably know "who is the boss in the house."

Risk 2. Change of locks in the room immediately after prepayment

Yes, such situations still occur in nature. You sign the contract, make an advance payment, get the keys from hand to hand, and when you want to enter the premises with your property, it turns out that the locks have been changed and the “owners” have disappeared.

There is only one way out in this situation - to contact the police and institute criminal proceedings on the fact of fraud.

Risk 3. Sublease

It is best to clarify the point with a simple example.

Example

Tenant Andrei, a novice entrepreneur, rented a storeroom for a year, paying six months in advance. At the same time, the businessman did not check the documents of title, relying on the honesty of the lessor.

After a month of successful trading, a real owner appeared in the store with a full set of genuine documents. He politely asked the tenant to move out of the occupied space. Andrei tried to find a sub-tenant to at least return his money paid in advance, but the entrepreneurial intermediary did not answer either the calls or the SMS.

Conclusion: deal directly with the owner. At least, he should be aware of all the manipulations that occur with his property.

Finding a dance hall that fully meets the needs and requirements of dancers is often quite difficult. Of the entire variety of classrooms offered, only a small part truly meets the requirements of teachers and students. Therefore, starting the search for a place suitable for training, it is worth considering some important points.

Proper rental of the dance hall. What to look for when choosing?

First of all, you need to find out what a dance hall is. It may seem that this is just a rented room with mirrors. However, this is only a small part of what is included in this concept. The ballroom is a place in which people have to join in something high. They receive positive emotions, achieving indescribable euphoria due to rhythmic movements.

Choosing and renting a dance hall is not so simple. This should be a meaningful process, taking into account many basic requirements. These include the following items:

  • Since the dance hall and loud music are often inseparable, its sound should not interfere with people living or working in the neighborhood. For this reason, it is better to prefer a non-residential premises in an area with excellent transport accessibility.
  • During training, physical activity leads to increased sweating, faster oxygen is burned around. Therefore, the hall should have windows or a good ventilation system that allows you to effectively ventilate the room.
  • It is better to give preference to a room with a ceiling height of more than three meters. Depending on the number of people involved in the group and the type of dance, the calculation of the optimal area will depend.
  • Not necessarily, but it is desirable to match the interior design with the intended occupations. Calm shades are more suitable for classic trends, while active modern styles will fit perfectly into the intricate and vibrant design.
  • In addition to the hall, it is worth paying attention to the presence of locker rooms, toilets and showers. After an active workout, it’s far from convenient to change clothes and immediately go home, a shower will help wash away sweat and get rid of discomfort.
  • An important role is played by the floor covering, which should be smooth, but should not be slippery. Some directions of dancing can be performed in socks, so the risk of slipping will be great.
  • Convenience in training will bring a large number of mirrors, which will help to more accurately see the correct execution of elements and visually expand the available space.

Of course, most of the dance halls are selected based on how comfortable the dancers feel there, which is, of course, the right approach. However, it is worth remembering about the mandatory parameters of the room, for example its area, the presence of ventilation and locker rooms.
